The High-Low Shoe Finder

The new destinations for splurgey statement
sneakers and sensible work shoes.

Low:Horace Wingtip Brogue, $130
Wolverine, the Michigan-based brand that opened its first store here in August, is known for high-end work boots, but its “No. 1883” line includes more playful styles. 254 Elizabeth St., nr. E. Houston St.; 212-226-7869.

Low:Cole Haan Lenox Hill Cap Oxford, $198
Now under new ownership (Nike
sold the brand in 2013), the line has removed sneaker technology from its dress shoes in favor
of a more refined look that’s still quite comfy. 128 Prince St.,
at Wooster St.; 212-219-8240.
